The late Pope Jean Paul the 2nd has been beatified at a special mass in St Peter's Square at the Vatican, effectively setting him well on the way to sainthood. He died in 2005.   Police estimate that more than a million people crowded into Rome for the mass officiated by the present Pope Benedict the 16th.   ... http://www.euronews.net/
